A mystery-comedy with slight touches of horror, The Phantom in the Red House (original title: El fantasma de la casa roja) has a young woman who works at the Devil’s Inn, a nightclub with themed costumes, named as an heir to a dead millionaire’s fortune — but she and the others concerned must survive a few nights in an old dark house before they will be able to uncover the loot. But will they all survive? Musical numbers and broad comedy on the part of the detective leaven the mix.
> Mildly recommended. Otto judiciously thinks this movie is OK, but not great.
Movie 486 for 2021.
